We are two episodes in, and most of us remain cautiously optimistic and are really appreciating the awesome challenges and the edit that's highlighting the social aspect of the game in camp more. Based on the feedback, the Beauty tribe appears to be the surprise favorites so far. Brains continues to deliver on their expected dysfunction, and we're all a little surprised to see the Brawn tribe come out on bottom of the grueling challenges. We're excited for episode three. Bring it on!

This week we interviewed Jennifer Lanzetti. She left the game in episode 2 of Survivor Kaoh Rong. Jennifer was so impressive in her pre-season video that she quickly became a fan favorite to win it all. She will be forever remembered for enduring the horror, pain and misery of having a worm burrow into her ear till it bled. She was amazingly tough and resilient but eventually it came down to an issue of trust that she was unable to overcome.

Listen to this interview to hear her take on what really happened with the female alliance, her thoughts on her tribemates, why she thinks being voted off may have actually saved her and more!

Well, that took an interesting turn. We certainly didn't see that coming. Have you ever seen someone disassemble their own game so quickly and effectively? Does it count as a blindside if you unintentionally make the case to have yourself voted out? We have also been surprised by how the tribes are performing in the challenges. We are two for two at under estimating the Brains tribe. We think Alecia deserves this week's award for "most improved castaway".

Who would you have kept: Jenny or Alecia? Do you think Tai will be able to recover the HII? Who do you think will find it on the Brawn tribe? Who will end up in control at the Brains camp? What surprised you the most this week? Who do you think will be next to go?

Well, the first episode allayed some of our fears for the new season and certainly managed to give us a new one regarding creepy crawlies getting into our ears. The general consensus is that it looks like we have a good cast and most of us are hopeful for what the season holds, but not everyone is convinced just yet. We are anxious for the next episode, and we want to continue to encourage CBS to make all of them at least 90 minutes long.

This week we interviewed Darnell Hamilton. He left the game in episode 1 of Survivor Kaoh Rong. In this game, any little thing can snowball into a reason to get you voted out. Unfortunately for Darnell, he handed them a great big reason when his error cost his tribe to fall behind in the challenge. Even then, it seemed like someone else was the most likely choice to go. While it wasn't a blindside, we were certinaly surprised and a bit disappointed when he became this season's first boot.

Listen to this interview to hear his review of his tribemates, why he thinks they voted him off, how he feels about his time on Survivor and more!

Survivor season 32, Kaoh Rong: Brains Beauty Brawn II, is off to a good start! It looks like we have some promising castaways and we enjoyed the creative, new "community" challenge. We were relieved to not see someone get medi-vaced right out of the gate, although the part with Jennifer and the ear worm made us very uncomfortable. We got to see several people with bad sunburns, some of them were flirting with dehydration and heat exhaustion, so it's not going to be surprising if someone does get into trouble.

How did your assessments of the new castaways change once you saw them in action? What did you think about Debbie's bragging about her skills and Tai's choice to hunt for the HII? Have they done irreparable damage to their game? Who do you think is currently in control of each tribe? Who would you have kept: Alecia or Darnell? Who do you think will be next to go?
